This post is part of a sponsored campaign.
Motherhood is giving up a full night’s sleep. Almost every night.
It’s using that gift card some gave to you for something for your kids.
It’s spending time on a freezing cold soccer field, cheering for your child.
It’s giving that last cookie to that sweet little face, even though you’ve been craving one all day.
It’s renting the newest animated movie instead of that funny chick flick.
It’s making sure the kids are ready to head out the door each morning, even if it means you only have time to toss your hair into a messy bun.
It’s having more kid apps on your phone than ones for you.
It’s making this instead of that for dinner to please young palates.
It’s dozens of things we do each day without even thinking about it where we choose to put our kids’ needs ahead of our own.
We do it because we love our kids.
Oh, that video makes me tear up!
In celebration of Mother’s Day this year, JOHNSON’S® Baby has established JOHNSON’S® Baby CARES Care Cards, a digital e-card platform encouraging moms to share positive messages of encouragement with other moms across the country, while simultaneously supporting Save the Children®. You can help, too!
Simply pick and share a card filled with messages of reassurance for a Mom in your life on Facebook at http://www.
Head over and share a card with a mom who could use a smile today!
I sure love mine! I love being his mom.
It also means knowing that they think your Dr Pepper is the best – and so you only get 2 drinks because they get the rest – and it means that Cheesecake Factory Cheese cake you brought home – will make another tummy happy – and it means never giving up – even when your heart is breaking!
I always love coming here:) It feels likehome!
We were clearly thinking about the same things. =)
Motherhood is just as much about failing as it succeeding, but its always about trying.
I love being a mom even when it means giving up my favorite things.

It’s also hiding in the pantry to sneak a piece of candy after you just told your kids no. 😉
I love this post! Every word. In fact, the ONLY criticism I have of other blogs is when they DON’T seem to have a voice. I don’t want to be bored reading a blog!
Happy Mother’s Day! I so agree. Loved reading this!
